Location Selection
Location of a water conditioning system is important. The following conditions are required:

Level platform or floor. Room to access equipment for maintenance and

adding regenerant (salt) to tank.

Ambient temperatures over 34oF (1oC) and below

120oF (49oC).

Water pressure below 120 psi (8.27 bar) and above

20 psi (1.38 bar).

In Canada the water pressure must be below

100 psi (6.89 bar).

Constant electrical supply to operate the controller. Total minimum pipe run to water heater of ten feet
(three meters) to prevent backup of hot water into system.

Local drain for discharge as close as possible. Water line connections with shutoff or bypass
valves.

Must meet any local and state codes for site of

installation.

Valve is designed for minor plumbing

misalignments. Do not support weight of system on the plumbing.

Be sure all soldered pipes are fully cooled before

attaching plastic valve to the plumbing.

Outdoor Locations
When the water conditioning system is installed outdoors, several items must be considered.

Moisture The valve and control are designed for

use in NEMA 3 locations. Falling water should not affect performance. The system is not designed to withstand extreme humidity or water spray from below. Examples are: constant heavy mist, near corrosive environment, or upwards spray from sprinkler.

Caution: This unit is for dry location use only unless used with a Listed Class 2 power supply suitable for outdoor use.

Direct Sunlight The materials used will fade or

discolor over time in direct sunlight. The integrity of the materials will not degrade to cause system failures. If it is necessary to locate the conditioner in direct sunlight, an outdoor cover (PN 1267811) over the valve and control is necessary. Valve skirts (PN 1267808) are available if further protection is required.

Temperature Extreme hot or cold temperatures

will cause damage to the valve or control. Freezing temperatures will freeze the water in the valve. This will cause physical damage to the internal parts as well as the plumbing and conditioning resin. High temperatures will affect the control. The display may become unreadable but the control should continue to function. When the temperature returns to normal operating limits the display will re-appear. A protective cover should assist with high temperature applications.

Insects The control and valve have been

designed to keep all but the smallest insects out of the critical areas. Any holes in the top plate can be covered with duct tape. The top cover should be installed securely in place.

Wind The cover, when properly installed on the

valve, is designed to withstand a 30 mph (48 Kph).

Installation
All plumbing must conform to local codes. The two tanks should be plumbed to an interconnecting manifold, Figure-6. It is highly recommended that separate brine lines be used for each tank. It is critical for the resin, resin volume, inlet piping, etc. to be identical for both tanks. flowing from a heat source to the conditioners is to install an expandable accumulator tank before the hot water heater. Always conform to local codes.

Do not locate the unit in an area where the ambient

temperature is ever below 34oF (1oC) or over 120oF (49oC).

Maximum allowable water temperature is

WARNING: Do not use tools to tighten plastic fittings. Over time, stress may break the connections. Hand tighten the nuts.
100oF (38oC).

Do not install the unit near acid or acid fumes. Do not expose the unit to petroleum products.

Water Line Connection

WARNING: Do not use petroleum grease on gaskets when connecting bypass plumbing. Use only 100% silicone grease products when installing any Pentair brand valve. Non-silicone grease may cause plastic components to fail over time.
A bypass valve system must be installed to accommodate occasions when the water conditioning system must be bypassed for supplying hard water or servicing. See Figures 7 and 8.
Not in Bypass In Bypass

WARNING: The inlet water must be connected to the inlet port of the valve. When replacing valves, the inlet and outlet may be reversed. Ensure that the plumbing is not installed in the oppposite order. Tank media may be pushed into the valve.

WARNING: Filter media may need to be properly conditioned before the filter is placed into full operation. Consult the original equipment manufacturer for proper procedure.

Drain Line Connection

Note: Standard commercial practices are expressed here. Local codes may require changes to the following suggestions. Check with local authorities before installing a water conditioning system. The system should be above, and not more than 20 feet (6.1 m) from a drain. Connect an appropriate fitting and 3/4-inch (1.9-cm) plastic tubing to the drain line connection on the rear of the control valve. If the backwash flow is more than 5 gpm or if the unit is located more than 20 feet (6.1 m) from the drain, use 1-inch (2.5-cm) tubing for runs up to 40 feet (12.2 m). Also, purchase appropriate fitting to connect the 1-inch tubing to the 3/4-inch NPT drain connection. If unit is located where the drain line must be elevated, you may elevate the line up to 5 feet (1.5 m) providing the run does not exceed 15 feet (4.6 m) and water pressure at the conditioners is not less than 40 psi (2.8 bar). Where drain line is elevated but empties into a drain below the level of the control valve, form a 7-inch (18-cm) loop at the far end of the line so that the bottom 9

Location Selection
The following considerations must be taken into account when selecting the location for the water conditioning system.

Locate the system as close to a drain as possible. If supplementary water treating equipment is
required, make sure that adequate additional space is available. Locate the brine tank in an accessible place so that salt can be easily added.

Do not install any system with less than 10 feet

(3 m) of piping between the outlet of the conditioners and the inlet of the water heater. Water heaters can transfer heat down the cold water pipe into the control valve. Hot water can severely damage the conditioners. A ten-foot (3-m) total pipe run (including bends, elbows, etc.) is a reasonable distance to prevent hot water damage. A positive way to prevent hot water from

of the loop is level with the drain line connection. This will provide an adequate siphon trap.Where a drain empties into an overhead sewer line, a sink-type trap must be used. Secure the end of the drain line to prevent it from moving (Figure-11).

Brine Line Connection

It is recommended that separate brine lines be used for each tank.
The regenerant line from the tank connects to the valve. Make the connections and hand tighten. Be sure that the regenerant line is secure and free from air leaks. Even a small leak may casue the regenerant line to drain out, and the conditioner will not draw regenerant from the tank. This may also introduce air into the valve causing problems with valve operation. Ensure that Teflon* tape pipe sealant is applied to the 3/8-inch NPT regenerant line connection (Figure-9).

Figure 10 Brine Tank Drain 3. Attach a length of 1/2-inch (1.3-cm) tubing (not supplied) to the fitting and run to the drain. Note: Do not elevate the overflow line higher than 3 inches (7.6 cm) below the bottom of the overflow fitting. Do not tie into the drain line of the control unit. The overflow line must be a direct, separate line from the overflow fitting to the drain, sewer, or tub. Allow an air gap as in the drain line connection, Figure-10.

*Teflon is a Tradmark of E.I. duPont de Nemours.

WARNING: Never insert drain line directly into a drain, sewer line, or trap (Figure-11). Always allow an air gap between the drain line and the waste water to prevent the possibility of sewage being back-siphoned into the conditioner. Secure the end of the drain line to prevent it from moving (Figure-11).
Regenerant Line Connection

Air Gap

Brine Tank Overflow Line Connection

In the event of a malfunction, the brine tank overflow connection directs overflow to the drain instead of spilling it on the floor where it could cause water damage. Complete the following steps to connect the overflow fitting to the brine tank: 1. Locate the fitting hole on the side of the brine tank. 2. Insert the overflow fitting (not supplied) into the tank and tighten with the plastic thumb nut and gasket as illustrated in Figure-10.
Drain

Figure 11

Brine Tank
Normally one brine tank is needed for each media tank. The use of block salt or rock salt is not recommended. If a brine shelf is used, two brine tanks are required. This is due to the increased time needed to produce a concentrated brine solution when using a salt shelf. If rapid multiple exhaustions and regenerations are anticipated, do not use a salt shelf even if two brine tanks are used.

Electrical Connection
Caution: This valve and control are for dry location use only unless used with a Listed Class 2 power supply suitable for outdoor use.
The 764 Series control operates on a 12-volt alternating current power supply. This requires use of the Pentair Water supplied AC adapter. A variety of AC adapters are available from your supplier for different applications. They include:

AC Adapter Standard wallmount Outdoor rated

Input Voltage 120V 60 Hz

Application UL listed for indoor installations UL listed for outdoor installations

Part Number 1000811

120V 60 Hz

1235448

120 VAC AC Adapters:

Make sure power source matches the rating printed on the AC adapter. Note: The power source should be constant. Be certain the AC adapter is not on a switched outlet. Power interruptions longer than 8 hours may cause the controller to lose the time and day settings. When power is restored, the control will display four dashes (- - :- -) indicating that the day and time settings must be re-entered Note: Do not connect power by plugging in the transformer at this time. Doing so may cause difficulty in properly placing the unit into operation.

Caution: Plumbing cannot be used for electrical grounding when metal inlet and outlet piping is connected to a non-metal valve.
Connect the inlet and outlet piping together using a grounding strap or clamp to establish continuity.

Disinfection of Water Conditioning Systems

The materials of construction in the modern water conditioning system will not support bacterial growth, nor will these materials contaminate a water supply. During normal use, a conditioner may become fouled with organic matter, or in some cases with bacteria from the water supply. This may result in an off-taste or odor in the water. Some conditioners may need to be disinfected after installation and some conditioners will require periodic disinfection during their normal life. Depending upon the conditions of use, the style of conditioner, the type of ion exchanger, and the disinfectant available, a choice can be made among the following methods.

Calcium Hypochlorite
Calcium hypochlorite, 70% available chlorine, is available in several forms including tablets and granules. These solid materials may be used directly without dissolving before use.

1. Dosage
A. Two grains (approximately 0.1 ounce (3 mL) per cubic foot.

2. Regenerant tank conditioners

A. Backwash the conditioner and add the required amount of hypochlorite to the well of the regenerant tank. The regenerant tank should have water in it to permit the chlorine solution to be carried into the conditioner. B. Proceed with the normal regeneration.

Sodium or Calcium Hypochlorite

These materials are satisfactory for use with polystyrene resins, synthetic gel zeolite, and bentonites.

5.25% Sodium Hypochlorite

These solutions are available under trade names such as Clorox1. If stronger solutions are used, such as those sold for commercial laundries, adjust the dosage accordingly.

1. Dosage
Polystyrene resin; 1.2 fluid ounce (35.5 mL)
per cubic foot.

Non-resinous exchangers; 0.8 fluid ounce

(23.7 mL) per cubic foot.

2. Regenerant tank conditioners

A. Backwash the conditioner and add the required amount of hypochlorite solution to the well of the regenerant tank. The regenerant tank should have water in it to permit the solution to be carried into the conditioner. B. Proceed with the normal regeneration.

System Operation
Treated Water (Downflow)
Untreated water is conditioned as it flows through the resin bed and up the riser.

Slow Rinse (Downflow) Cycle C31

Water flow moves the regenerant through the resin at a specific rate and rinses to the drain. The resin is regenerated.

Backwash (Upflow) Cycle C1

Flow is reversed by the control valve, directed down the riser, up through the resin bed and sent to drain. The bed is expanded and debris is flushed to the drain.

Repressurization Cycle C4
Pressure is balanced in the valve before continuing the regeneration.

Regenerant Draw (Downflow) Cycle C21

Water passes through the injector and regenerant is drawn from the regenerant tank. The regenerant is directed to the resin bed. The hardness ions are displaced by sodium ions. Regenerant draw is completed when the air check closes.

Fast Rinse (Downflow) - Cycle C5

Water passes through the resin bed and up through the riser to drain. All remaining regenerant residual is rinsed from the resin bed.

Regenerant Refill Cycle C8

Water is directed to the regenerant tank to create regenerant for the next regeneration.

Placing Water Conditioning System Into Operation (cont.)

Caution: If your system is a 273/278A (Alternating) go to Quick Cyling the Control for 273/278A Systems.
Note: Its recommended that you do not put regenerant into the tank until after the control valve has been put into operation. With no regenerant in the tank, it is much easier to view water flow and motion in the tank. 5. Press and hold the button on the controller for 5 seconds. This will initiate a manual regeneration. The control will display a solid hourglass indicating that the motor and camshaft are turning to the backwash cycle (C1). When the control reaches the backwash cycle, the total regeneration time remaining will be displayed. Pressing the SET button will display the specific cycle time remaining. 6. While the controller is in cycle C1 (Backwash), open the water supply valve very slowly to approximately the open position. Water will begin to enter the media tank. Any air remaining will begin to be purged to drain as the media tank fills with water.

Quick Cycling the Control 273/278L and 273/278P

It is required that the control be quick cycled to specific regeneration cycles when placing the conditioner into operation. This will ensure that all of the air in the tank and valve is purged. The process also provides a check for leaks and functioning of the brine system. Please perform the following steps for quick cycling the control, before proceeding to start-up. 1. With the control in the treated water position, Press and hold the REGEN button on the controller for 5 seconds. This will initiate a manual regeneration. The control will display a solid hourglass indicating that the motor and camshaft are turning to the backwash cycle (C1). When the control reaches the backwash cycle, the total regeneration time remaining will be displayed. Pressing the SET button will display the specific cycle time remaining. 2. Press and release the UP and SET buttons to move the control to the Regenerant Draw cycle (C2). 3. Repeat Step 2 to advance to each cycle. Before the final filling of the media tank with water check that: the nearest water faucet is completely closed. the valve drain line is properly routed to a drain the regenerant tank is empty and the regenerant hose is connected to the valve the water supply valve is off. Note: The control can be sent directly back to the treated water position from any regeneration cycle. Press the UP and SET buttons (about 5 seconds) until the hourglass icon begins flashing. The control will now skip all remaining regeneration cycles. 273/278 Alternating and parallel tank systems have one Logix 764 control that is mounted on tank 1. Tank 2 has a blank faceplate and the valve is controlled by the Logix 764 control on tank 1. 4. Add water to the regenerant tank. A. With a bucket or hose add approximately 4 gallons (15 liters) of water to the regenerant tank. B. If the tank has a salt platform in the bottom of the tank, add water until the water level is approximately 1 inch (25 mm) above the platform. 21

WARNING: If opened too rapidly or too far, media may be lost out of the tank into the valve or the plumbing. In the open position, you should hear air slowly escaping from the valve drain line.
When all of the air has been purged from the media tank (water begins to flow steadily from the drain line), open the main supply valve all of the way. This will purge the final air from the tank. Allow water to run to drain until the water runs clear from the drain line. This purges any debris from the media bed. 7. Check Regenerant Draw. A. Quick cycle the control to the C2 regenerant draw/slow rinse position . Note: As you advance through each cycle there will be a slight delay before you can advance to the next cycle. There will be a pause after the regenerant draw and slow rinse cycles. This cycle (C4) is a repressurization cycle and is designed to allow the water pressure to equalize on each side of the valve discs. Allow the control to repressurize (3 minutes) before cycling the control to the regenerant tank refill position.

B. C2 will be displayed. With the control in this position, check to see that the water is being drawn out of the regenerant tank. The water level in the regenerant tank should recede very slowly. C. Observe that water is being drawn from the regenerant tank for at least three minutes. If the water level does not recede, check all regenerant line connections for air leaks. 8. If the water level is receding from the regenerant tank you can quick cycle the control to the C8 Regenerant tank refill position. A. The control will cycle to the regenerant tank refill cycle, and water will be directed down through the regenerant line to the regenerant tank. Let the water flow through the line until all air bubbles have been purged from the line. Note: Do not let the water flow down the line to the tank for more than one to two minutes, or the tank may overfill. 9. Repeat steps 4 and 8 for each additional tank. 10. Finally, turn on a faucet plumbed after the water conditioner. Run the faucet until the water runs clear. 11. Add the appropriate amount of regenerant to regenerant tank.

Tank 1 moves through cycles: C5 - Fast Rinse As water enters the tank, air will be forced out the drain line. Once water fills the tank it will then discharge out the drain line. Quick cycling the control can now be used to advance through the remaining cycles C8 - Regenerant Refill; (278 conditioner) flow to the regenerant tank is visable Quick cycle to service then-Tank 2 moves through cycles: C1 - Backwash As water enters the tank, air will be forced out the drain line. Once water fills the tank it will then discharge out the drain line. Quick cycling the control can now be used to advance through the remaining cycles C2 - Regenerant Draw; (278 conditioner) the regenerant tank should have water in it. As the draw occurs the level will go down. C3- Slow Rinse C4 - Standby Both tanks have now been purged of air. The water supply valve can be fully opened. 3. Press and hold the button for 5 seconds. This will start the second regeneration. Quick cycle as Tank 2 moves through cycles: C5 - Fast Rinse C8 - Regenerant Refill; (278 conditioner) the flow to the regenerant tank is visable. Quick cycle to Service then-Quick cycle as Tank 1 moves through cycles: C1 - Backwash C2 - Regenerant Draw; (278 conditioner) the regenerant tank should have water in it. As the draw occurs the level will go down. C3 - Slow Rinse C4 - Standby At this point both tanks are fully operational and ready. 4. Turn on a faucet plumbed after the water conditioner. Run the faucet until the water runs clear. 5. Add the appropriate amount of regenerant to the regenerant tank.

To Place the 273/278 Alternating System into Operation:

1. Add water to the regenerant tanks (278 conditioner). A. With a bucket or hose, add approximately 4 gallons (15 liters) of water to each regenerant tank. B. If the tank has a salt platform in the bottom of the tank, add water until the water level is approximately 1 inch (25 mm) above the platform. 2. Press and hold the button for 5 seconds. This will start the first regeneration. Note: Once the valve has reached the cycle (visable on the display and camshaft has stopped turning), quick cycle to the next cycle. This is especially recommended for the C8 cycle. Overfilling the regenerant tank will affect the brine and future regen cycles. Note: It is recommended that you do not put regenerant into the tank until after the control valve has been put into operation. With no regenerant in the tank, it is much easier to view water flow and motion in the tank.

The Alternating Water Conditioning System is Now Fully Operational

22

Note: After any control reset (valve type or system change, etc.) it is necessary to initiate a manual regeneration and quick cycle through it. This will ensure the control and cam are synchronized. If not synchronized err# will display and the control will drive cams to the correct position for valve and system type programmed..

Note: In service flow rate display can be replaced with a clock display using level II Programming.

Programming Overview
The 764 control includes multiple program levels that allow the Water Treatment Professional to customize the system for many water conditions. Additionally, historical data can be viewed allowing quick and easy troubleshooting. In most cases Level I programming is all that is required to set up the water conditioning system for proper operation. A brief description of each program level is listed below.

The 764 control can be reset to original factory parameters when viewing the H0 parameter. Press and hold the SET button for three seconds while H0 is displayed. Release the button. All settings except for Time of Day and Day of Week will be reset. The 764 Logix control will now display the valve and system type. Refer to Level I Programming. Note: After any control reset (valve type or system change, etc.) it is necessary to initiate a manual regeneration and quick cycle through it. This will ensure the control and cam are synchronized. If not synchronized err# will display and the control will drive cams to the correct position for valve and system type programmed.

28

Manual Regeneration Options

Refill First Option
Refill First is only available for single tank L and twin parallel P models. The 764 control allows users to select when the refill cycle occurs. When Pr = 0 (default) refill occurs immediately after fast rinse. When Pr = 1 refill will not occur until just before a regeneration. This allows for a dry brine tank. If refill first is selected, the valve will move to refill two hours before the start of backwash. After refill is complete, the valve moves back to service for a twohour brine make-up time. Regeneration then follows as normal, skipping refill. By default, time of regeneration is set to midnight after refill first is selected. Note: The tank in service (on-line) cannot be regenerated while the other tanks are isolated. Water for backwash would not be available. The 764 control features several options that offer additional flexibility for manually regenerating the conditioner. On alternating systems the tank in standby will move through regeneration to service. The tank in service will move through regeneration to standby. On parallel systems, the tank with the lowest remaining capacity will regenerate.

Double Immediate Manual Regeneration

Back-to-Back manual regenerations are initiated by pressing and holding the REGEN button for three seconds while the control is in the regenerating mode. A solid x2 icon next to the regeneration icon will appear indicating a second manual regeneration will start immediately after current regeneration is complete. For alternating and parallel systems each tank will regenerate once. Single tank systems will regenerate twice back-to-back.

Delayed Manual Regeneration

Press and release the REGEN button to start a delayed manual regeneration. The Regeneration icon on the display will flash indicating a regeneration will start when the time of day reaches the programmed time of regeneration. Pressing the REGEN button again will turn off the regeneration icon and cancel the delayed regeneration.

Immediate Manual Regeneration

Pressing and holding the REGEN button for three seconds starts an immediate manual regeneration. A solid regeneration icon will be displayed. The control will immediately begin a regeneration on the tank in service.

Delayed Second Regeneration

Pressing and releasing the REGEN button while the control is in regeneration will program the control for a delayed second regeneration. A flashing x2 icon next to the regeneration icon will appear indicating a second regeneration will start when the time of day reaches the programmed time of regeneration. The delayed second regeneration will be performed on the new tank in service. For alternating and parallel systems, each tank will regenerate once. 29

Regeneration Modes for Parallel Systems

Parameter P16 is used to determine the method for demand initiated regeneration. Four regeneration modes are possible.

P16 = 0, Delayed Regeneration with a Smart

Reserve Regenerations will start only at the Time of Regeneration entered in P2. A tank is regenerated if the capacity remaining in that tank is below the minimum required capacity needed to meet the next days calculated water usage requirement. The next days water usage number is based on the daily average water usage held in memory plus a 20% reserve. If necessary both tanks will be regenerated sequentially beginning with the most exhausted tank. This option allows the control to vary the reserve, and therefore the decision to regenerate, based on the actual daily water usage pattern for the location at which it is installed. See Table-7.

Table 7 P16=0
Priority High Ave Low Flow Rate Continuous Soft Water Efficiency

P16 = 1, Delayed Regeneration with a Fixed

Reserve Regenerations will start only at the Time of Regeneration entered in P2. A tank is regenerated if the capacity remaining in that tank is below the percentage entered in P17. If either tanks capacity is overrun by 50% a regeneration will take place. The control will also cause both tanks to be regenerated sequentially the next Time of Regeneration regardless of how much water is used during that 24 hour period. This feature is to help recover a severely exhausted bed. See Table-8.

Table 8 P16 = 1
Priority High Ave Low Flow Rate Continuous Soft Water Efficiency

P16 = 2, Immediate Regeneration - Fixed

Reserve/Delayed Regeneration - Smart Reserve This option uses the features of both option 0 and option 3. This is the most versatile of regeneration options. Option number 2 provides all the advantages of variable reserve based on the actual amount of water that is used each day plus the capability to react to the excessive water usage days that occur occasionally. See Table-9.

Table 9 P16 = 2
Priority High Ave Low Flow Rate Continuous Soft Water Efficiency

P16 = 3, Immediate Regeneration - Fixed Reserve

Regenerations are started immediately when a tank reaches zero or when the system capacity remaining (capacity remaining in both tanks) drops below the reserve capacity programmed in P17. To prevent hard water this reserve should be set large enough to provide conditioned water during the regeneration of the most exhausted tank. See Table-10. Table-10
